these allowances are included in the salary structure. After the employee submits his investment declaration for the year, salary income is being calculated after considering all the exemptions & deductions. And if the salary exceeds the exemption limit then TDS would be requried to be made. So only paying of huge allowances does not attract TDS provisons. The salary should exceed the exemption limit to be chargeable to tax.

Agreed with Giridhar
Only Taxable part of Allowances to be added in salary, and Tds is to be deducted on salary as per sec. 192
i.e on projected salary basis.
(High amount of Allowances amount to addition in salary)

Deduct TDS on the commission payable during the year & issue Form 16A. It would constitute their business income.
